what to feed my almost 1 year old mix

What about it?

I have a 9 month old German Shepard / Husky mix who is about 50 pounds. we adopted her from a local rescue when she was 6 months old. When we got her, we started her on a Merrick all breeds puppy food. She also had a parasite which caused excessive diarrhea and stomach upset. With the first round medication it was not getting better so we brought her in to get another round and our vet also suggested looking into a large breed puppy food instead because he said it had different levels of nutrients that would be helpful to her with her growing. After searching the internet and in store we ended up going with Purina pro plan large breed puppy food since they were one of the very few brands that have large breed PUPPY food. That being said, I’m having a lot of difficulty trying to research a good brand of food for her as an adult as I think I would like to switch her to something other than pro plan when it’s time to switch her off puppy food around her one year birthday (also let me know if that’s too early???) She is our first pup, so I just want to make as educated of a decision as I can. Thank you. Pic of my cutie included

Younger dog nursing

What about it?

Hi everyone. We have been watching my boyfriends coworkers dog lola (left) for awhile now and everything's been pretty good. But I've noticed the last couple days my dog delta (right) has been trying to nurse. She's only 7 months old so still pretty young. I always tell her no and take her away from the other dog for a bit, but I was just wondering if that's normal? And if you guys have any advice on how to get her to stop. TIA

Weird behavior From my dog

What about it?

Today i went to let out my dog Oreo, when i let her out of her cage, she yelped and ran towards her mother. (Her mother has been fighting cancer, specifically Osteosarcoma). She allowed me to get near her and pet her. Doesn’t seem to be afraid, and i let her out and she went out with the others minus her mom. When I went to let her inside she ran and hid from me, i tried waiting for her, tried calling her and whistling. Yet she didn’t come, i attempted to pick her up and she screamed bloody murder, so i put her back down. I don’t know what to do, i don’t want hurt her trying to move her (also don’t want to give her a reason to bite me) Any suggestions?

How serious is this chip on my dog’s upper canine tooth?

What about it?

I’m wondering if we need to take him to the vet immediately or if it can wait until his neuter in mid August. He has a lot of vet anxiety and I’m worried they won’t be able to properly examine the tooth. There appears to be no exposed pulp or root, it’s just a small black spot that looks like a chip. The gum around the affected canine is a little red too. He’s eating, drinking and playing normally, and it does not appear to be bothering him at all.

Irritated paws help

What about it?

My 8 year old pitty has some red paws that she keeps licking non stop. It's been a month maybe a bit more. Seemed to affect all paws, but mostly the back ones. We are spraying the area with a antiseptic and antifungal spray, and seemed to help at first, but we can't get it completely away. Any suggestions on what it may be? Or any advice on treating it?
